Vehicles and infantry can both jump 9" high. The differnces are:
A vehicle cannot is not permitted to rotate during a Jump Move action.
Enemy units may perform a reaction when a vehicle jumps.
All other normal rules on movement and facing must otherwise be followed. (Page 55)
Where does it say you can react to vehicles jumping ?

it's more the absence of a rule preventing you from doing so, than a rule saying you can. All units may be reacted to if they move within 12" of an eligible opponent, unless stated otherwise, such as in this example here:
Page 55, Jump SA…
"Enemy units cannot react to Move actions made by a Soldier unit with the Jump special move ability."
I bolded and italicized the word Soldier, as it's the only jump-capable unit-type specified which cannot be reacted to.
Soldiers leaping behind you is surprising. A 40-ton behemoth on the other hand, when jumping makes a lot of noise, draws the eyes, and casts a large shadow!
